Sansara is a chamber choir based in the United Kingdom that has become recognized for their transcendent performances and polished recordings. The ensemble, under the direction of Tom Herring, showcases a strong dedication to exploring a broad range of choral repertoire, extending from the Renaissance period to the contemporary and including both sacred and secular works. Sansara's release "Traces" is reflective of their artistry, bringing forward intricate vocal textures and profound emotional depth.

The choir has notably contributed to the promotion of new music, as evidenced by their collaboration with composer Marco Galvani on the album "Invisible Cities: Choral & Electronic Music by Marco Galvani", which marries traditional choral techniques with modern electronic influences. This innovative approach to expanding choral soundscapes has become a hallmark of Sansara's identity. With their thoughtfully curated performances, such as "The Waiting Sky: Music for Advent and Christmas" and their masterful rendition of "Ave sanctissima Maria", Sansara continues to enchant audiences and carve out a unique space within the choral music scene.
